Notable "Features" over DGX-505 ?

I honestly couldn't answer this as I did not compare the two. There were 2 similar models that I was torn between so I ended up downloading both manuals at Yamaha to compare them.

Well, I went on the site and took a look...you can do this for yourself at http://lukashd.com/eng/product_info/blackbox_14_1.html plainly says "Recommended specs for PC". So I guess you could go to the site and ask a question, or to the seller here DGTLSYSTEMS and they may be able to direct you to some kind of clarification. I have had better results with DGLT myself.

I've heard there may be a new LX3 (LX4) coming in 2010. Something to consider.My wish list would be to retain fast lens, with maybe a bit more zoom if possible. Add AVCHD video w/ dedicated video button. Make it as flat as possible to fit in pocket better. Improve menu.

When I do the comparison on Onkyo's site, it looks like it has all the features of some of the bigger systems that the average guy really wants. HDMI Switching, rather than pass thru as well as a couple component-ins for legacy gaming systems. Latest HDMI and good speakers. The price is right as well. What is everyone hearing for a date? I have heard late March to early April? I may pre-order as well.

You are absolutely correct, Brian. The video with the D3S is very good and certainly exceeding web requirements, but I bought the D3S because of its high ISO performance and overall image quality. By the way, I don't think DxO has rated the D3S yet. Number 4 behind the P60, D3X and P45 is the plain-old (and great) D3. I think the D3S will come in slightly higher than the D3 due to ISO performance.

The product description states: "The DGX-213's most important feature is to convert CD+Gs into MP3+Gs and storing them on a USB device or SD card. You also have the option to record using many sources such as from your CDs, VCDs, CD+Gs, MP3+Gs, or AVI files (AVI audio track must be encoded in MP3)." Even if it didn't or you decide to purchase a different Karaoke player, you can copy the CD+G's to your computer, then using a free software called AudioGrabber, you can convert it to any number of file types and copy them to a USB, or to a CD in a format some other player uses like MP3.

I just started using MediaMonkey (the free version) and it works well with the DX50. All I've done so far is to sync the library after ripping new CDs; haven't created any playlists or anything else.

Get the dsx it's only a bit more and has what you need. But be sure to buy it new.

There is more than just the difference of cable card input in the 96D. As for CableCard - it enables you to get rid of the cable box and instead rent (usually for about $3 - 5 a month) a small card (think PCMCIA like) into the TV and be able to decode the digital cable signals without the box. The downside is that the Cable Card 2.0 specification is rather recent and with 1.0 which most cable operators have today don't do OnDemand type programming. Both TVs will be able to pull down over the air HDTV signals with an antenna (your local stations). Now for the differences between 96D and 95D. The 96D features a USB port and a firewire (IEEE 1394) port. The USB port can be used for potential firmware upgrades (though I haven't searched to see if there even have been any yet. The other difference is that the 96D supports 1080p in "Game Mode" while the 95D, while fully 1080p, does not use 1080p in "Game Mode". From what I have been able to tell those are the big differences.

Identity Stronghold is one of the vendors on GSA-approved list. I suppose they know their stuff.On the other hand, Optexx, though not on the list, publishes the frequencies it blocks, which include 125/134kHz

No, none of those features are available on this unit. I cannot recommend this unit at all, as I had to send mine back after two months due to it failing to work.

Thanks for the tips. I ordered the VRDMC5 then went to ebay and searched for the DVS. Found five for sale-only three were new. I purchased on wiht Buy it Now option for $34.95. Am anxious to try both in combination.

DX8 is a very nice transmitter which you will have for a long time. Purchasing through Amazon would be fine.

I am interested in knowing this answer as well. $100 difference in price but I don't see very little difference in features.
